Funny. That is totally different in Europe. Engineering very much requires higher education, which definitely includes at least a basic understanding of business, economics, law etc. and of course good knowledge of physics, mathematics and deep insight in some engineering field. This is usually taught as a bachelor's degree. (Bachelor of Engineering) That said, there are some able men and women who carry out engineering jobs without a degree (even though IIRC they can not call themselves engineers)
